Another thing, I'm not a fan of crap social media but there's a reason why discord etc allows message reactions, why signal included reactions, etc. Because it's popular way of replying and communicating.
Keep zaps and its just all transactional and people will just stop using it. However I also think zaps are a GREAT feature and should be made easier to use.

2025-01-25 14:26:34

- reply

Yeah it'd be strange because people would also just resort to doing simple emoticon text replies... Then you can't have people vote on reactions.
Its like when youtube dislike stats was removed... Why
I want my given right to ratio posts, damn it 🤣

2025-01-25 14:19:04

- reply

Thinking out loud here: I'd say reactions are just another form of a reply, like a text but short and sweet and supposed to be fun.
Zaps are a nice addition but since it's based on scarcity may influence people to treat it more as a store of value, and hence any tipping would be more valuable.
That said, zaps are a good way to support someone you support, like an artist, writer, etc. Good to keep in mind that these relationships form over time. Does that lead to zap fatigue, where you support at first but then stop? Or the creator is at the whims of changing interests and is more precarious and vulnerable to serve the interests of what gets more zaps versus what art or build projects they want to practice that may not be as popular?
All interesting questions.

Nice. The wonderful thing about Linux is that we learn something new everyday about how to use it better.
IMO it's suitable for everyone, from the most newbie to the advanced user.

2025-01-25 12:26:22

Ever since joining #nostr I realized I've been spending a lot of time learning about it, and coincidentally burning more and more of my device battery 😅
Oh well 😅😅

0.6 is rewarded to miners for each block.
If you look at the ratio between ratio:total supply, i. E., 0.6 reward to total supply, the ratio shrinks.
So compare the result of these examples:
0.6/20,000,000
Vs.
0.6/25,000,000
Vs.
0.6/30,000,000
Inflation shrinks but Max supply is still uncapped to incentivize mining

I do have one question. So once I put nostr.build as my media served in amethyst, will it automatically upload whatever media I upload through amethyst to my account?

2025-01-24 03:01:26

I use amethyst.
Are the default relays good enough or is it required to pay for a relay? Thoughts? #asknostr

2025-01-24 02:53:07

Cool I got an account on @nprofile…h679 and I've got my avatar uploaded.
All this space to upload my stuff and I paid in sats.
#asknostr OK what else do I do to get more into the nostr protocol. Be gentle 😅

2025-01-24 01:39:27

well it's been about a full day since I decided to get back into nostr because I have an itch to get back into social media, something I was just mostly a lurker than an active poster.
Why did I not use social media previously? Because I'm a privacy advocate and was concerned about the oligopy control of tech over our data and our lives.
I used nostr a while back but got busy and didn't spend too much time on it. Happy to be back here. #introductions

I always scratch my head when labor theory is attacked when it's not fully Marx's understanding.
He obviously has a particular understanding compared to classical political economists like Smith or Ricardo but he was basically following their lines a lot.
Marx focused on contradictions in how capitalism develops and undermines some of its own characteristics, like how capitalism and free markets are about competition but also leads to monopolies that undermine competition. Or that free markets is a non-statist form of organizing production but then leads to state and regulatory capture by private interests.
Look around. Does this not happen? So it's nice to see some push back at these misunderstandings.

If you're using nostr, you should also be using Linux.
People might be scared of it, but I've found it quite non-techie friendly, especially distributions like Ubuntu or Linux Mint.
